Chapter 1000: These people are the signboard
When Yuan Shaoqing, the chief examiner in the Imperial Examination Hall, received the emperor's decree and learned that each candidate would have a new quilt, he was overjoyed.
This weather is really too cold.
Even though some charcoal basins were added to the tribute hall, it was still unbearably cold.
Fortunately, I have a thick new quilt.
Some candidates simply wrapped themselves in quilts.
This way, it is much warmer.
only--
“Cough cough… cough cough…”
“Cough cough… cough cough…”
The intermittent coughing made Yuan Shaoqing's brows, which had just relaxed, frown again.
I feel that this year's candidates have suffered so much.
Because the weather got colder, many candidates caught a cold.
"well!"
Yuan Shaoqing sighed and paced in front of the cells.
Yuan Shaoqing walked and walked, and then found out——
All the candidates who had hot soup and hot meals were in good health, and none of them coughed or sneezed.
Oh, and this candidate—
Yuan Shaoqing looked at a man in the cell. He remembered that at the end of the previous game, this man was sneezing and had a runny nose, and it was obvious that he had a serious cold.
He originally thought that this person would not be able to hold on in this battle.
But now it seems that this person's cold symptoms are gone.
Could it be that if I just go back and rest for a night and take two doses of medicine at most, the cold will be cured?
Yuan Shaoqing didn't know that this candidate didn't just drink the medicine twice, but drank two bowls of medicine.
Because I slept too deeply in the inn that night when I returned home, I almost missed the time the next day and rushed to the Imperial Examination Hall without even taking my medicine.
However, because Tangbao's medicine was effective, she had a good rest, and worked up a sweat, her cold was basically cured.
This person was the first one who ran over and asked Tangbao for medicine that day.
Yuan Shaoqing walked around the Imperial Examination Hall worriedly, and then returned to Su Laowu's cell.
Su Laowu: “…”
It’s not even dinner time yet, why is this gentleman here again?
However, the warm patch under my feet is no longer warm, so it’s time to replace it.
So, Su Laowu calmly took off his shoes in front of the examiner, and gracefully took out the warming patch from his shoes, threw it into the trash can beside him, and then -
Then Su Laowu was stunned.
Because the examiner actually picked up the warm note he had thrown away from the trash can...
Su Laowu: “…”
Looking at Yuan Shaoqing's calm back, he opened his mouth.
Did you pick it out from your shoes?
Moreover, he didn't wash his feet or socks yesterday...
**
Compared with the situation after the first exam, the polarization became more serious after the second exam.
Because some candidates were carried out by the yamen runners inside.
Naturally, the candidates from Fude Academy are still in the best condition.
This time, there was no need for Zhou Juren and others to do publicity. After coming out of the Imperial Examination Hall, all the candidates who could walk rushed to Tang Bao's medicine stall, smelling the medicine.
No one is stupid.
Everyone saw the situation of the candidates at Fude Academy.
What's more, there are some candidates who took medicine last time.
Such as Zhao Songlin and others.
As soon as he came out of the examination room, he ran towards Tangbao.
"The young doctor is truly a miracle worker! I drank the medicine once and my symptoms have been alleviated a lot..."
"I feel much better too. The medicine is more effective than anything I've taken before..."
"Yes, yes, I do too. To prevent the condition from getting worse, please give me another bowl, little doctor..."
"Exactly! I want a bowl too..."
“…”
These people are simply walking advertisements!
For a while, Tang Bao's medicine stall was packed with people.
Princess Linghua was filled with curiosity when she saw this.
Aren’t these people hungry?
Why don't you just drink the ginger and sugar water and eat some hot meat buns, but instead rush to take the medicine?
Little did they know that they wouldn't die from hunger for the time being, but if they couldn't get medicine, it would not only affect their final exam but could also cost their lives.
After all, two people failed this exam.
"Don't push! Don't push!" Shi Liu saw that order was about to break down and shouted, "My princess is so smart. She prepared enough medicine in advance to ensure that everyone can get a bowl!"
At this time, several royal guards strode over.
The leader was of ordinary appearance, but Tang Bao recognized him as soon as she saw him.
This person occasionally stood guard at the door of the imperial study.
At the same time, he was the person in the crowd that day.
"Line up! Come one by one!"
Several royal guards shouted loudly to help maintain order.
Tang Bao knew in her heart that this must be what the emperor uncle meant.
She knew that what she did would definitely attract the attention of her uncle the emperor.
Tang Bao glanced at Princess Linghua.
I'm donating quilts with the help of Prince Cheng'en's Palace. Prince Cheng'en should be able to handle it, right?
Princess Linghua did not expect that the Royal Guards would come to help.
"Hey! Did you call these people here?" Princess Linghua came close to Tang Bao and asked.
Tang Bao shook her head.
"no!"
How could she have such great power to dare to order the imperial guards around the emperor?
No, it seems she can!
Tang Bao remembered the gold medal given to her by Emperor Tianxi.
"Then why are they here?" Princess Linghua asked puzzledly.
"Are we allowed to do good deeds but not to help others?" Tang Bao said.
Princess Linghua glanced at Tang Bao and said, "I think you definitely know, but you just don't say it."
Tang Bao: ...
If you know I won’t tell you, then don’t ask.
Can I just say that these people were sent by the emperor?
By the way, the uniforms of the Imperial Guards are different from those of ordinary yamen runners.
These candidates are all Juren, so they can naturally distinguish these things.
So, when they saw the Royal Guards coming, they immediately stopped crowding.
Not only that, even those candidates who had doubts no longer had any doubts.
It can be said that as soon as the Royal Guards arrived, they put a label of genuine products on Tangbao's pesticide stall.
"Bai'er!" A shrill cry suddenly rang out.
Everyone looked over and saw a man lying on the ground not far away. A white-haired woman was sitting beside him, shaking the man and screaming and crying heartbreakingly.
"Bai'er, what's wrong with you? Bai'er, don't scare me... Wuaaa... Bai'er..."
The woman cried out loudly, and the man on the ground did not move.
Seeing this, the people around were all terrified and hid back.
"Is this person dead?" someone asked in horror.
"Alas! The weather has turned suddenly cold these days. People with weak health may not be able to survive it." Someone shook his head and sighed.
"Come to think of it, during the Spring Examination six years ago, someone collapsed at the entrance to the Imperial Examination Hall upon leaving the examination room, and never stood up again..."
"I remember that time too. It was said that the man was the only son in his family, the only one in three generations..."
"Alas! It's really pitiful..."
People were talking about it, some were horrified, some were afraid, some were sympathetic, some were regretful...
